Located near the town of Knjazevac, Stara Planina is the largest mountain in eastern Serbia. This high mountain range of fascinating beauty and unspoiled nature is a natural border with Bulgaria. A one of the most beautiful mountains in our country, Stara Planina has vast potential for the development of tourism. This mountain is a natural resource of extraordinary importance as falls into first category natural resources.

This belle is covered in snow for almost five months a year. Being between 1,100 and 1,900m high, it has excellent potential for the construction of long alpine skiing runs.
